What Is PDN-DS1CONFIG-MIB?

PDN-DS1CONFIG-MIB is a vendor-specific SNMP module from Paradyne Networks for configuring and testing DS1 (T1/E1) interfaces on Paradyne access equipment, covering line testing as well as monitoring of test results. It defines a test control table for initiating diagnostic tests on a DS1 interface (by type and argument) and a monitoring results table recording the outcome, error codes, and error counts of those tests. Its monitoring value is centered on hardware/line-level fault detection for DS1 circuits — devDS1MonResultErrorCount and devDS1MonResultCode reveal line errors uncovered by loopback or other diagnostic tests, which is essential for isolating T1/E1 circuit problems in access networks. It builds on the general concept of DS1 interface testing found in standard telecom MIBs (such as RFC 2495's DS1/E1 MIB) though implemented as Paradyne's own extension. It is deployed on Paradyne DSL/T1 access equipment where technicians need to run and review on-demand line diagnostics remotely via SNMP. Engineers can download the PDN-DS1CONFIG-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in PDN-DS1CONFIG-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

What Can Be Monitored

  • DS1 test type/status
  • DS1 test result code
  • DS1 line error count
  • on-demand loopback test control

Supported Devices

  • Paradyne DS1 (T1/E1) access equipment

Monitoring Examples

A technician sets devDS1TestType and devDS1TestArgument in devDS1TestTable/devDS1TestEntry (keyed by devDS1TestIfIndex) and triggers devDS1TestControl to run a loopback or line test on a specific DS1 interface. Polling devDS1MonResultTable/devDS1MonResultEntry afterward for devDS1MonResultCode and devDS1MonResultErrorCount reveals whether the test passed cleanly or surfaced circuit errors. A nonzero devDS1MonResultErrorCount on a repeated test would confirm a persistent line fault requiring carrier escalation rather than a transient glitch.

The interface identified by a particular value of this index is the same interface as identified by the same value of ifIndex from the Interfaces table of MIB II (RFC 1213).

INT devDS1TestControl1.3.6.1.4.1.1795.2.24.2.6.5.1.1.1.3INTEGERread-writeA control variable used to start and stop operator- initiated interface tests. Writing idle(1) to the test table entry terminates the specified test for the interface associated with the entry. Writing running(2) activates the specified test for the interface, if allowed (i.e., the test must be allowed for the interface and in combination with any other tests currently executing for the interface). The rules for executing tests for the product are specified in the product's Operator's Guide. This variable is read to determine the current status of the test for the interface. A value of running(2) indicates the test is currently in progress on the interface. A value of idle(1) indicates that the test is currently not active on the interface.

A value of none(1) indicates that no further information is available. inSyncNoBitErrors(2) notes that the monitor pattern test has synchronized on the pattern and has not detected any bit errors. inSyncWithBitErrors indicates that the monitor pattern test has synchronized on the pattern and has detected bit errors. A monitor pattern test that has not synchronized on the request pattern returns a value of notInSync(4).
